Can anyone please explain how to split a sentence at a comma, or space or hyphen in to words and capitalize the first letter of each word. But I don't know how many words the sentence contains.

HI,

data : begin of itab occurs 0,

words(40),

end of itab.

data : v_sentence(1000).

data : lv_firstchar.

split v_sentence at ',' into table itab.

loop at itab.

translate itab-words+0(1) to upper case.

modify itab index sy-tabix.

endloop.
